THE IMPORTANCE OF ASSISTING STUDENTS IN THE DECISION-MAKING PROCESS IS EXPLORED. COUNSELORS ASSIST STUDENTS IN LEARNING HOW TO MAKE DECISIONS. A DECISION SHOULD BE EVALUATED IN TERMS OF THE PROCESS USED TO ARRIVE AT IT RATHER THAN IN TERMS OF THE RESULTING CHOICE. KNOWLEDGE OF ALTERNATIVES, POSSIBLE OUTCOMES, AND THE PROBABILITY FOR SUCCESS OF…

Witcher, William W.; Baptiste, H. Prentice, Jr. – 1974
This learning module instruction booklet provides guidelines for the use of a kit designed to teach students nondiscriminatory social attitudes and to heighten general awareness of cultural differences. Intended for use with a film followed by group discussion, the kit provides samples of attitude pretest and an attitude posttest related to the…

Karweit, Nancy – 1978
This paper examines the effects of learning time on student achievement. It begins by reviewing what is known about how time is allocated and utilized in schools and the effects of differing amounts of exposure to schooling on achievement. Several theoretical perspectives concerning how time spent affects achievement are briefly discussed. The…

LAMB, JERRY C.; MIRABELLA, ANGELO – 1966
THE EFFECT OF ADAPTIVE VERSUS NONADAPTIVE TRAINING UPON PEROFRMANCE IN A VISUAL TARGET DETECTION TASK WAS INVESTIGATED. ADAPTIVE TRAINING WAS NOT FOUND TO BE SUPERIOR TO NONADAPTIVE TRAINING. BUT INCREASING TASK DIFFICULTY IN AN ARBITRARY STEPWISE FASHION WAS MORE EFFECTIVE THAN MAINTAINING A CONSTANT LEVEL OF DIFFICULTY. THIS DOCUMENT, AD 634…

Hare, A.P.; Scheiblechner, Hartmann – 1968
In a test of three computer models to simulate group decisions, data were used from 31 American and Austrian groups on a total of 307 trials. The task for each group was to predict a series of answers of an unknown subject on a value-orientation questionnaire, after being given a sample of his typical responses. The first model, used the mean of…

Simulation in Maintenance Training: Now That I've Thrown Out the Bath Water, Where is the Dear Baby?
Brock, John F. – 1977
There is little question that, over the next decade, the military services are going to be committing significant resources to developing simulators for use in maintenance training courses. The arguments for such a direction are persuasive, particularly in terms of training dollar savings. This paper reviews the past R&D on maintenance training,…

Abrams, Macy L.; And Others – 1974
The research was conducted to determine if a physically complex, continuous, three-dimensional psychomotor skill could be acquired more efficiently with simulated-task, augmented feedback than with the feedback normally provided by performing the task itself. The specific skill selected for the study was shielded metal arc welding because it is…

Miner, Alfred Norris
The Florida Community College Inter-Institutional Research Council (IRC) has developed a computerized budget simulation model which can help administrators determine the general fiscal impact of alternate approaches to resource utilization. This model uses three basic systems and one generalized subroutine, based on the budget requirements of the…

Puig, Joseph A. – 1976
A review of the literature was made resulting in 41 references, 12 of which described research in applied experimental settings. Subjects in 10 of the 12 studies showed some improvement in performance as a result of using color in the displays. The decision as to whether a color or monochrome television system should be used appeared to be…
